Advantage chief Julia Lo Bue-Said has slammed “scaremongering” national press coverage of recent travel disruption and called on the UK government to help rebuild an industry “disproportionately shut down” for two years.

MPs demanded ministers now take steps to “future-proof” the aviation sector by incorporating any future pandemic resilience planning “to provide travellers and the industry with predictability and transparency”.
